Remember when you were in love for the first time as a teenager? Everything was perfect, but the relationship eventually ran its course, ending suddenly but amicably? What did you do? You blamed yourself, ignored the obvious signs of decay, begged and bargained, promising that you can change.
Now, with the wisdom and experience of adulthood, you can look back rationally and understand why the relationship failed. You recognize that person's flaws, their incompatibility with you.
Over the past few months, both media pundits and many fans have experienced the teenage heartbreak portion of Brady's departure. He had no weapons, the team is cheap, he deserved better, etc. These people are still battling with the early stages of grief, those stages are driven by ego and fantasy.
Eventually, we will move on, and realize that this was necessary. Keeping Brady would mean gutting the defense, abandoning long-term sustainability in favor of expensive flashy wideouts. Eventually, we are also going to realize that Tom Brady was not a good QB over the second half of 2019. His accuracy was off. His attitude sucked. Those picks late in the Miami and Tennessee games may have been his worst throws since the early days.
